You've Got Mail

Bad. 2/10 wouldn’t tap any of the main characters🤦🏻‍♀️no good goon material. Also the girl main character looks more like a boy than the main guy.

You’ve Got Mail is the ultimate feel-good rom-com. Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks have such great chemistry, and their sweet, slow-burn romance is as charming today as it was when it first came out. The film perfectly captures that mix of old-school charm and modern technology, with the early internet serving as a fun backdrop to the story. It’s got heart, humor, and a timeless appeal that makes it an easy watch over and over again. Definitely one of those movies that leaves you with a smile.

Hard to believe this film is 28 years old. It has stood the test of time and continues to be a delight to watch, start to finish. Hanks, Ryan and Kinnear are all excellent in their roles in an updated version of (1) Shop Around the Corner (1939) and (2) In the Good Old Summertime (1946). Just great movie making!!!

One of the best of the cozy genre. Every turn around the corner is perfect.

The ending of this movie was terrible. He drove her out of business, lied to her, and then they just get together? Entirely unrealistic and unfair to her story.

There were books, love, anonymous mail, and "Pride and Prejudice" references: what a wonderful combination. It was sweet, with cute and funny little moments. A rom-com you won't regret watching.

It’s like getting a warm hug from an old friend every time I put this film on. Perfection from start to finish. A charming story played out by a wonderful cast of characters. By the end of the film I’m always teary eyed with a smile I can’t seem to wipe off my face.

I was touched by this movie. And that is rare for me. The actors and writers are top-notch. The music, especially the Harry Nilsson tunes, resonate. I think it’s wrong to dismiss the film as simply a rom-com, a too sugary rom-com, or whatever. What’s different about this movie is the juxtaposition of people in love with people simply living together and the delineation between the two. Kathy Kelly (Meg Ryan) and Joe Fox (Tom Hanks) fall in love with each other online, but they really don’t know one another. This leads to complications. One is that each is in a serious relationship with someone with whom they’re not in love. Another is that Fox drives Kelly’s bookstore out of business. Speaking of books, the literary references add sparkle, especially those to Elizabeth Bennett and Mr Darcy. Fortunately, the obstacles of the roommates with benefits fall away, and, hardly a spoiler, the lovers come together like magnets. But it’s not predestined. There are hurdles. These enhance the ending as does Nilsson’s beautiful rendition of “Over the Rainbow.” If this film does not touch you, you are probably dead.

A love letter to New York City.

"You've Got Mail" is cute and clever.
